Answer 1

Perro: Los ratones me han pagado por dar una vuelta con el gato, porque como todos saben, "cuando el gato no está, los ratones bailan".

Dog: The mice have paid me to take a spin with the cat, because as everyone knows "when the cat's away, the mice will play".

:) Love it. - gringojrf, Apr 4, 2016

Dog: I'm enjoying this car so that I am still willing to go for a ride with my eternal enemy.

I wouldn't put 'así' after 'coche' ;) - Pablo064, Apr 5, 2016

Gracias Pablo - porcupine7, Apr 5, 2016

'Bien (like to say 'Okay') ¿quién está conduciendo? ;) - Pablo064, Apr 5, 2016

Don't you dare......"Ruff".......!Meow!

No te atreves... "Ruff"...! Miau!

'No te atrevAs' ;) - Pablo064, Apr 5, 2016

Answer 8

Well I'll be doggone!

¡Que me cuelguen!

I have no idea how to say this in Spanish. - rac1, Apr 4, 2016

I don't either, I suspect there is no single translation, your "que me cuelguen"sounds to me like you are asking to be hung (but maybe it's an idiom), I would wonder if "que me aspen" would serve the way you mean it here. :) - bosquederoble, Apr 4, 2016

My dictionary says - maldito - :) - ian-hill, Apr 4, 2016

I know, it is maldito, but I didn't want to use that, so I translated it, "I'll be jiggers". lol - rac1, Apr 4, 2016

I don't think anyone got the connection. Dog gone. Oh well. jejeje - rac1, Apr 4, 2016

I wonder where 'que me aspen' is used? Spain maybe? - Pablo064, Apr 5, 2016

We are taking it to Pawn Stars to see what it is worth.

--¡No hay problema! Súbete en el estribo.

--Hi, buddy, nice car! Would you give me a ride to the garbage can?

--Why, sure! Hop on the stirrup.

Wonderful car! Wonderful pic!

Answer 11

Por lo usual, el perro hace todo el trabajo mientras que el gato se relaje.

As usual, the dog does all the work while the cat relaxes.

'se relaja' ;) - Pablo064, Apr 5, 2016

Oh, I thought it would be subjunctive after mientras que. Wrong again? - jennysk, Apr 5, 2016

Thanks Bosque I'll check it too - Pablo064, Apr 6, 2016

Thanks very much, bosque. I see now. It's to do with the second being dependent on the first, and perhaps something in the future. - jennysk, Apr 6, 2016
